His previous solo releases of Garcia (1972) Compliments (1974), and Reflections (1976) were indeed diverse and charismatic. It was a commercial flop upon release, which disheartened Garcia as Cats was arguably his most cohesive solo studio effort. The stunning re-master is audibly evident from the first strums of “Reuben And Cherise” until the choral vocal fade-out ending of “Gomorrah.” Recorded in the fall of 1977 and released in April of 1978, this album became a late-blooming landmark for Garcia. In celebration of the 40th anniversary since the album’s recording, two vinyl configurations will be released - a limited edition pressing of 5,000 marbled gold 180gram vinyl with individually numbered foil-stamped packaging and a 180gram black vinyl. The All Good Things version of the album was subsequently released as a single CD in 2005.On October 13th, Round Records will release a special reissue of Jerry Garcia Band’s classic album Cats Under The Stars. All Good Things: Jerry Garcia Studio Sessions, Jerry Garcia / Jerry Garcia Band, 2004.

The complete Cats Under The Stars album plus bonus tracks from the album recording sessions were included in the Garcia box set Reissued in 1988 on CD by Arista (ARCD 8535) In an interview with Joel Selvin he was more succinct had everything - chops, production, songs. In the early 90s he still thought well of the album As far as I'm concerned Cats Under The Stars is my most successful record - even though it's my least successful record! I've always loved it and it just never went anywhere. We did all those tunes on tour right after the album came out, with John and Maria, Keith and Donna and I think Ronnie Tutt was still playing drums with us on those first few tours. That's the one that I'm happiest with, from every point of view in which I operate on that record. On another occasion in the early 80's he also discussed this LP Cats Under The Stars is my favorite one. But I've learned not to invest a lot of importance in 'em, although it's nice to care about your work. I think I probably gave away more copies than I sold. It did worse than any other record I ever did. The record I worked hardest at and liked best was Cats Under The Stars. Garcia discussed the LP in an interview in the late 80's. The record was not a success financially but remained Garcia's favorite recording. There was a lot of heart in it, you might say. We spent so many hours in the studio.Garcia also commented on the efforts that went into the recording I worked real hard at it and was very diligent and almost scientific about it. It was all new material and we did it ourselves. John Kahn commented in an interview We put so much blood into that record. A lot of time and effort went into the sessions.
